Shrub advice

Anybody know what this shrub is? Had two but one was removed for a water line install. Planning on pullin' this one out and replacing w/ two shrubs again. I kinda like it but can't find it anywhere. Is it just a hedge or what?

Looked at other shrubs at HD and Lowes but nothing matches. Their garden people couldn't ID it either. Google has worn me out.

Considering others also. Northeast climate, SW Pa. Like to keep shrubs at 4' high X 4' wide. Non-flowering. Low maintenance. Japanese Holly and Boxwood caught my eye but I know nothing of them.

Any recommendations?

No, but I think I might know someone who might:

I heard if you prune your shrub lower your house will look bigger.

Looks just like the mock orange in my yard.

Everyone likes a nicely trimmed bush.

it's a bungalow

Might be a type of ligustrum, commonly called privet. Has it ever grown enough to display white flowers and then small black berries?

A Rhodie?

rhododendron

has no flowers or berries

Now that there is funny.

Looks like a privit with a bright green weed thing growing up through.

Bought these this morning. Green Velvet Boxwood. Non-flowering, correct landscape spacing, grows to 4'H x 4'W, -20° cold hardness, low maintenance. Winnah!

Found at a nursery 5 miles outta town, 20-ish y/o kid in the yard knew this stuff. My original shrub was likely a green privet but they only had gold privets, kinda too loud a yellow for my siding and foundation.

I'll shop here from now on. The Lowes and HD crews work in garden center one day and plumbing the next.

Beer time!

Hard to go wrong with a boxwood. I'm a low maintenance kind of guy and I have many of them.

Boxwood is definitely a classic landscape plant. The ligustrum here in FL grow to the size of small trees.

Can't stand boxwood.

Every house around here is surrounded by green meatball shrubs.

OP's is commonly called a burning bush because the foliage turns bright red in the fall.

Burning bush is a type of euonymus.
